Abstract/Description:
The Amager Resource Center (ARC) is an inter-municipal waste management company operating in Copenhagen, Denmark and its surrounding municipalities. Recently, Copenhagen has decided that the waste collection process in the city will be taken over by ARC starting in 2022 using e-trucks. These electric waste collection vehicles benefit the environment and workers as they are quieter, more efficient, and prevent the employees from breathing in harmful gas. Our group worked to design E-truck fleet recommendations for ARC specifically focusing on reducing capital investment through minimizing travel duration and distance traveled per E-truck.
